Super late update today, our blog did not want to cooperate with us this morning – apologies! Flows are current as of 4:00 PM
Big storms last night blasted us with rain and wind, but also brought much cooler temperatures as well, along with lower humidity, making our lives SO much better here on the West Branch. We had several floats go out after the storm, and bugs were to be found, as well as fish eating them. Today we had some clouds in the morning, and a cool overnight, so we’re starting with lower temps – always a good thing.
